DAZN app crashes during Canelo vs Charlo

Thousands of boxing fans stayed up late to watch Canelo vs. Charlo live on the DAZN app; however, the streaming app crashed and infuriated a lot of fans. While it worked well for most of the undercard, the broadcast crashed during the main event itself. Footage was lost after the end of round two and only resumed at the start of round four.

What happened in the third round remains a mystery to boxing fans, who took to social media to vent their frustrations. Former boxer Anthony Fowler wrote: “DAZN are taking the piss here, WTF up at 5 am for this.” All of the boxing fans had a similar reaction to that of Anthony Fowler. One fan wrote: “DAZN has been working all night, and now the headline fight is on, and it crashes.” “WTF DAZN, we all missed round three??? Give everyone a refund!” said another fan.
